Dealing with Pain

From time to time, we all experience either physical pain or the mental pain which arises from the problems and difficulties we have in our lives. For some, this may be living with a long-term health condition whilst for others it may be the temporary pain of an occasional headache. Others may have to live with the emotional pain of their difficult circumstances.

Whatever the extent, we all experience the pain of suffering in its many guises, but none of us want to. We try hard to avoid it and get rid of it when it does arise which can in turn cause us even more of an issue.

When we apply some wisdom and compassion towards our pain, we can learn to see our suffering in a different light, approaching it with patience, acceptance and understanding. We will then find our emotional response lightens, giving us the freedom in our mind to let go of our suffering and to hold a mindset which is peaceful, calm and contented. Pain may still arise but our experience will be transformed.
